Technical Architecture

This diagram below visualizes Acre's core architecture:

• Users deposit BTC through the Acre dApp, which auto-bridges native BTC to tBTC (ETH L1) and interfaces with the tBTC Depositor (manages deposits) and tBTC Redeemer (manages withdrawals) contracts at the tBTC Bridge Integration Layer

• Deposited tBTC is converted to the acreBTC deposit token and flows through the Acre Dispatcher, which dispatches tBTC to Acre Vaults approved by the Acre Security Council.

• tBTC rewards generated by the vaults are then routed back to the acreBTC vault and reinvested.
